New York Tribune, ''was wonderfully
fond of children, and he always carried
oranges and candies in his pockets to help
entertain them on the cars. If he saw a
poor mother with a baby crying in her
arms he would go ami com fort it and make
it stop its cryIug where others failed. In
coming up from Washington one timo
characteristic incident occurred. There

that their parents had died, and that they
were on their way to this city to find an
uncle whom they expected to meet them.

might be the uncle, and asked him what
he was looking for.
